I have compiled from Slitaz 4 the new kernel linux-3.9.5-tazpkg, tested on 4 and cooking from my system work well.
From cooking two bug or a did correction from system, the system boot and the device wireless bluetooth are rfkilled. I have finded a solution from edit /etc/init.d/network.sh and add from first line this command
rfkill unblock all
another problem is audio device but the folder alsa is missed on /var/lib
create this folder and the problem disappear.

If you are interested to try this kernel, here for downloads

First sight. Just extracting rootfs.
Do we need /boot/System.map-3.9.5-slitaz (1.3 MiB)?
(And two small symlinks: /lib/modules/3.9.5-slitaz/build and /lib/modules/3.9.5-slitaz/source)

Hello,

Could you please tell me if this kernel had communication with arduino enable ?

zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i ftdi_sio
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_FTDI_SIO=m
?

Second sight.
I have normally my frugal install. But I need "full" HD install to try new kernel. OK, I copy all the folders from my running SliTaz 4.0 to another partition using Midnight Commander. I not copy /dev, /mnt, /media, /proc and /sys, just make empty folders. Make new entry in the my Grub4dos menu.lst. Boot, black screen and white letters scrolls. Error, can't open /dev/tty1...tty6 and again, and again, loop... OK, boot "frugal" and copy /dev to HD partition. Reboot "full". Boots well just to desktop.

Display resolution is correct. Try to listen to music, OK, hear nice sounds. Internet? Wi-Fi not works :(
Here is end of log http://tazpanel:82/boot.cgi?log

Maybe, its because I copyed /dev folder from running system. Or anything else?

Anyway, thank you, gibor, for your work!

@aleksej
sorry for my bad english but
The wifi and bluetooth device at boot are switched off, but you from rfkill command enable all .
One solution to restore is from terminal then
rfkill unblock all
ifconfig wlan0 up
/etc/init.d/network.sh restart

or insert on script /etc/init.d/network.sh the command
rfkill unblock all

@subreptice
arduino not know but is able to communicate on usb/rs232, also keep all my historical evolution, bluetooth uvc-video firewire and other module serving on my system.

Not works, and empty list. Seems like rfkill not works at all at my system, and I have some sort of hardware kill switch.

@Aleksej
I suspicion lacking some drivers for your card but last chance, if you want try directly cooking with new kernel on live

gibor,
I not tried your ISO file. Sorry, but I love my tuned stable SliTaz 4.0 frugal installation ;) Your kernel 3.9.5 is just an experiment...

Here is diff between my 4.0 frugal and 4.0 full with your 3.9.5 kernel:

+acpi_cpufreq            5569  0
-aes_generic            25742  1 aes_i586
-aes_i586                6816  1
-ath5k                 111977  0
-ath                     9811  1 ath5k
-cfg80211               99896  3 ath5k,ath,mac80211
+ipv6                  181119 18
+jmb38x_ms               5289  0
-mac80211              145388  1 ath5k
+memstick                4408  1 jmb38x_ms
+mperf                    847  1 acpi_cpufreq
-output                  1144  1 video
-rfkill                 10682  1 cfg80211
+rfkill                 10527  0
+sparse_keymap           1944  0

My wireless is ath5k. Try to switch it on by hands:

tux@slitaz:~$ su
Password:
root@slitaz:/home/tux# modprobe ath5k
modprobe: module ath5k not found in modules.dep
root@slitaz:/home/tux# modprobe ath
modprobe: module ath not found in modules.dep
root@slitaz:/home/tux#

Find ath5k in the my stable:

tux@slitaz:~$ find /lib -iname 'ath*'
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/ath5k.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_hw.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_common.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_htc.ko.gz

Here is /lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/ath5k.ko.gz.

Do we have ath5k in the 3.5.9 kernel? No :(

Do not apologize, the message forum for sharing opinions and experiences.
Since it seemed to me I had scarce availability on which to test the kernel, I thought I'd cook an iso directly to whoever was in your condition.
For what instead overs as a result it does not mean much in the end, even the officer has big shortcomings that I had to fill, with this there is no justification that we are all in love with our baby.
In all cases, thank you anyway for your time, mine is just an attempt to revive this forum, I was not sure of the need to share something that I have done for me.

A simple thought, for a developer to serve much larger areas with a key, where, however, can find the right place to install a tool to rescue.

Best regards

Hi, gibor!
First, your English is hard for me. But it seems that I caught written.

Do not worry so much, "I have prepared an image, but it was not wanted by anyone."
OK, let's go. At least for your work did not remain useless.

I have a netbook, so I can't just burn ISO image and boot CD.
I have grldr from Grub4dos as my main bootloader.
I've search net how to boot ISO using Grub4dos and prepared menu lines, and boot. No luck:

I've rebooted my normal installation and opened your ISO image in ISO Master. Hmm...
Really, it have no /boot/bzImage file! It's a typo: your image contain /boot/bzImge; do you boot your ISO?

It's not a problem for ISO Master! Point wrong file, right click on it, select Rename, and rename it to right name. Save ISO with different name; tune menu.lst to use new ISO; reboot. Oh, error: image not continuous; boot windows and defragment it using Defraggler (free defragmentation tool). Reboot to use new ISO.

OK, now I type "ru" and Enter to use Russian keyboard, and press Enter to boot. It boots! :)
Next, it asks me again for my language (colored dialog on the black screen); I selected Russian again, and booting continued.
I booted right to Desktop:

I can see movement when I move mouse cursor. System live, but it was totally impossible to use.
I want to commandline. When I pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 then I see only black screen. I typed blind: root <Enter> root <Enter> killall Xorg <Enter> (blackbox still) startx <Enter> (broken Desktop again).

I want to play with boot options for my video card.

Again sorry if you did not understand, but absolutely do not speak English, I use google translate to convert words.

ISO is created with talito writeiso, and uploading it to stick with unetbootin for me works.
http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/sfnet_unetbootin/downloads/UNetbootin/549/unetbootin-linux-549/
it is possible that your display settings are wrong yes.
in a hurry I did not remove all the variables manually in / etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
I trust only the script when he says writeiso remove the screen settings.

do not waste any more time with me the language divides us and we can not understand each other.
many thanks again.

I know it. You - an Italian, and I - Russian. We all learned English in school. And I use Google Translator sometimes. Use simple words to get better results.

do not waste any more time with me

So categorical? Well, okay...
